You want your leadership team to move together — with clarity, speed, and conviction.
Most don't. Not because they lack talent or strategy. Because alignment is hard — and it breaks down in predictable ways.
Most don't. Not because they lack talent or strategy. Because alignment is hard — and it breaks down in predictable ways.
Misalignment isn't dramatic. It's quiet. It shows up as friction that accumulates until it becomes normal.
Decisions stall. Priorities conflict. Meetings multiply. Strategy doesn't translate to execution.
Leaders feel unheard. Teams feel disconnected. The frustration of working hard on the wrong things.
It shouldn't be this hard. Good people with shared goals should be able to move together.
These aren't technical problems. They're human-system problems — and they respond to human-system solutions.
This sounds like another consulting engagement that produces reports no one reads.
Or a training program that feels good for a day and changes nothing.
Or a coach who doesn't understand how our business actually works.
Or worse — more process layered onto an already overwhelmed team.
Those concerns make sense. Most leadership development fails for exactly those reasons.
Think of a cycling coach: they don't ride for you, but they see what you can't see — and they know what it takes to perform when it matters.
Alignment breaks down at three levels. We work across all three — because fixing one while ignoring the others doesn't hold.
Decision-making under pressure. Executive presence. Communicating with clarity and conviction when it counts.
Delivery: Coaching
Shared meaning and language. Communication that holds under load. Execution that doesn't fragment across groups.
Delivery: Training
Signal clarity and differentiation. Strategy that translates. Initiatives that survive contact with reality.
Delivery: Consulting
A consistent three-step process — whether we're working with an individual leader, a team, or a strategic initiative.
Identify the essential elements that define you, your organization, or your idea. Remove one, and the value proposition collapses. This is your foundation.
Map the gap between where you are and where you need to be. Clarify the job to be done. Trace a direct path back to Core — no distractions.
Execute iteratively. Measure in action, not theory — what people actually say, think, feel, and do. Adjust based on real-world signals.
Simple enough to remember. Rigorous enough to work.
The cost of misalignment compounds. So does the benefit of getting it right.
We assemble the right expertise for each engagement, drawing on professionals across disciplines:
Writers • Designers • Facilitators • Subject matter experts • Improvisers • Photographers
Art and science, combined with discipline and restraint.
The work I do now sits at the intersection of disciplines that don't usually talk to each other: performance, law, and organizational development.
Two decades as a professional actor taught me what it means to communicate under pressure — to hold attention, to make complex ideas land, to be present when the stakes are real. Law school and practice taught me rigor: how to structure an argument, how to identify what actually matters, how to prepare for the case you'll face rather than the one you wish you had.
Enterprise leadership development — coaching executives, training teams, consulting on strategy execution — showed me where these skills converge. The leaders and teams I work with don't need motivation. They need alignment: the ability to think together, communicate clearly, and execute without the friction that drains organizations of their best people and best ideas.
That's what NarrativePros does. We help leaders and teams move together.
No pitch. No proposal. Just an honest conversation about where the friction lives and whether we can help.
If we're not the right fit, we'll say so — and point you toward someone who might be.
